3-001 Definition of a Court or Tribal Ward

479 NAC 3-001

 A child becomes a court or tribal ward when his/her custody is committed to a court or other public agency. In order to receive payment from the Department, the agency must have a written agreement with the Department, ensuring that Title IV-E requirements are met. The agreement may be with a court or other public agency authorized under state law for the placement and supervision of children.
